Don't know how I missed that then. I remember building the early alpha versions and using servo to visit sites and I was surprised it worked that well for a fairly new rust project.

It performs very poorly when there is a lot of DOM content and js manipulation (think a kibana search+visual) and FF is notorious about memory exploitation. I was hoping replacing everything with rust code would be a start. A rewritr of gecko in rust at least. I don't have any workload at all that works better on FF and many of the ones I need to work smoothly don't.

But I completely understand why you wouldn't want to "boil the ocean". That said, I hope you appreciate how much support FF has from users. Anyone of us left using are doing so by paying a price for it. Everything else mozilla does appears like distracting side-quests. I would not care much about donating for wikipedia but if Mozilla focused on their flagship product more I would be happy to contribute both financially and through bug reports and grunt work PR's.

We live on the ocean and browsers are our ship.
